Title: Multi-line gaming machine with single wager option
Inventor: SCOTT OLIVE
IPC: A63F13/00
Filed: 2010-12-01
Granted: 2011-10-20
Abstract: A gaming machine for playing a multi-line spinning reel game has a display means and a game control means arranged to control images of symbols displayed on the display means. In the game at least one random event, in particular a spin of the reels, is caused to be displayed on the display means. If a predefined winning event occurs the machine awards a prize. The player is constrained to wager a single amount on each play of the game and may not vary the amount. This single wager amount provides eligibility to play all available lines of the game and eligibility to bonus features. No choice of other wagering options is provided. The gaming machine has two advantages over existing gaming machines. First of all, it is not necessary to weight the jackpot of the prize for different bet sizes since all initial bets are the same. Secondly it is possible to tailor the statistics of the game to the one allowed bet rather than to a large range of bet profiles, thereby directly appealing to the target player.
